Dear Editor:
Like many elections, the current provincial election involves a choice of the least bad option rather than the best option.
I am not happy with many of the things the Liberal government has done, starting with the harmonized sales tax fiasco, however, before people vote they need to consider carefully the alternative.
Do they really want a return to the hopeless no-growth '90s, when our economy went backwards and droves of young people left the province because their economic prospects were so dismal?
Do they want a high tax anti-business government that discourages economic activity and destroys jobs?
Don't be fooled by campaign rhetoric, unless you belong to a public sector union or another NDP favoured special interest group, you will suffer under an NDP government.
Please think carefully before you vote. It is tempting to vote negatively to send an arrogant government a message, but before you do so, please consider the consequences.
